Fencing in Cascade Park

Cascade Park filled in through the 70s, 80s, and 90s, much of it around 1985, which means a whole generation of backyard cedar is due, or overdue, for replacement. We see posts rotted at grade, panels held upright by the arborvitae behind them, and gates that need a lift and a shove to latch. Our crews are over the I-205 bridge constantly, and we handle everything from one leaning section to a full tear-out and rebuild.

Second Fences for First-Generation Yards

When this area was platted off Mill Plain in the late 60s and built out over the following two decades, fencing went in fast and shallow. We see the results every week: 4x4s snapped at the soil line, footings the size of a coffee can. When we rebuild, we upgrade what failed. That means ground-contact treated lumber or steel Postmaster posts hidden behind cedar pickets, honest footings, and kickboards that keep the boards out of the dirt. You end up with the same warm wood look these streets have always had, on bones that will outlast the first version by a wide margin.

Mature Trees, Settled Ground, Tricky Lines

Forty years of growth gives these blocks their shade, and it also gives fence builders their puzzles. Roots from big firs and maples wander under property lines near Columbia Square and along Cascade Park Drive, and older fences often drifted off the true boundary as they were patched piecemeal over the years. We locate pins, hand-dig around roots instead of tearing through them, and step panels cleanly where yards have settled. Winter gusts funneling up the Highway 14 corridor get factored into post spacing too. Fair price, careful work, no shortcuts on the parts you cannot see. Free estimates: (503) 555-0187.
